Fantastic write up, Sandra! I really need to grab a few free nights this week if I can and catch up on this show.
What I like about this show (without ever having seen it, haha) is not only that it’s based on real stuff and a real person, but also that the real person provides consults for the show/writers. That also makes it all the more interesting, like you said, to find out that the show/writers still provide falsehoods. I wonder why?
